Alabama River Lakes encompasses Fort Toulouse - Jackson Park Campground, a state-managed facility that operates year-round along the riverbank in Camden. The campground features 39 sites with water and electric hookups, accommodating big rigs on paved pads while maintaining no-pet policies throughout the property.
Sites include 50/30/20 amp service and water connections, with a single dump station positioned at the campground entrance. The bathhouse provides separate men's and women's facilities with multiple shower stalls, though Tim G. notes "the bathhouse showers have terrible shower heads, but are functional." Each site comes equipped with grills and picnic tables on spacious layouts that prevent crowding between neighbors.
The campground sits within a National Historic Site featuring preserved French and early American fort ruins from the 1700s-early 1800s. Walking trails wind through the park grounds, connecting to interpretive areas and historic structures. A boat launch provides direct river access for anglers and paddlers. School groups frequently visit during academic months for educational programs, creating daytime activity around the historic features.
Campers seeking additional options can explore campgrounds around Wetumpka, located northeast of the park for those wanting different amenities or pet-friendly policies.
